Neck Pain Research
1.) Murphy B, Taylor HH, Marshall P. The effect of spinal manipulation on the efficacy of a rehabilitation protocol for patients with chronic neck pain: a pilot study. J Manipulative Physiol Ther. 2010 Mar-Apr;33(3):168-77.
- Conclusion - Chiropractic care combined with exercise and exercise alone are both effective at reducing functional disability and pain in chronic nonspecific neck pain patients.
2.) Saayman L, Hay C, Abrahamse H. Chiropractic manipulative therapy and low-level laser therapy in the management of cervical facet dysfunction: a randomized controlled study. J Manipulative Physiol Ther. 2011 Mar-Apr;34(3):153-63.
- Conclusion - A combination of chiropractic manipulative therapy and low level laser therapy was more effective than either of the 2 on their own. Both therapies are indicated as potentially beneficial treatments for cervical facet dysfunction.
3.) Haavik H., Murphy B. Subclinical neck pain and the effects of cervical manipulation on elbow joint position sense. J Manipulative Physiol Ther. 2011 Feb;34(2):88-97.
- Conclusion - These results suggest that asymptomatic people with a history of sub-clinical neck pain (SCNP) have reduced elbow joint position sense (EJPS) accuracy compared to those with no history of any neck complaints. Furthermore, the results suggest that adjusting dysfunctional cervical segments in people with SCNP can improve their upper limb EJPS accuracy.
4.) Shaw L, Descarreaux M, Bryans R, Duranleau M, Marcoux H, Potter B, Ruegg R, Watkin R, White E.A systematic review of chiropractic management of adults with Whiplash-Associated Disorders: recommendations for advancing evidence-based practice and research. Work. 2010;35(3):369-94.
- Conclusion - There is a baseline of evidence that suggests chiropractic care improves cervical range of motion (cROM) and pain in the management of whiplash associated disorders.
- Conclusion - Chiropractic care combined with exercise and exercise alone are both effective at reducing functional disability and pain in chronic nonspecific neck pain patients.
